The Area

Caunes – Minervois is a small medieval town with a bank, shops and restaurants. There is a famous Abbey showing off to impressive effect, the equally famous pink marble, which is still quarried just outside the town. The centre around the abbey has wonderful narrow streets, to wander through and explore.

If you have not explored this area of France before you will find a wealth of fascinating (and tragic) history, dramatic scenery and of course we are in the Minervois, a major and good wine producing region. We have a weekly wine tasting evening where we show off some of the best wines produced in this region. You may then purchase them from us if you wish. Of course along with the wine comes the food and there are many local food markets in the surrounding towns and villages, a great opportunity to try and buy local produce.

Here is a list of places you may like to visit whilst you stay with us.

You cannot visit Carcassonne with out wandering around ‘La Cite’, this medieval city is the largest remaining city of it’s type, and fascinating to go round.

The beautiful city of Narbonne is a 40 min drive away and the beaches of Narbonne and the Mediterranean coast, are 50 mins away. A day trip to Barcelona and or Andorra is possible both being about three to four hours away, quite a long drive but well worth it. There is a rich Cathar history with the amazing Castles at Lastours and the extraordinary walled city of Minerve, which are both worth a visit.

We have an endless supply of leaflets in our Gites
giving information on almost anything you could wish
to do.
